(More) new code for 5.7:
- Validate the realtime geometry in the superblock when mounting
- Refactor a bunch of tricky flag handling in the log code
- Flush the CIL more judiciously so that we don't wait until there are
millions of log items consuming a lot of memory.
- Throttle transaction commits to prevent the xfs frontend from flooding
the CIL with too many log items.
- Account metadata buffers correctly for memory reclaim.
- Mark slabs properly for memory reclaim. These should help reclaim run
more effectively when XFS is using a lot of memory.
- Don't write a garbage log record at unmount time if we're trying to
trigger summary counter recalculation at next mount.
- Don't block the AIL on locked dquot/inode buffers; instead trigger its
backoff mechanism to give the lock holder a chance to finish up.
- Ratelimit writeback flushing when buffered writes encounter ENOSPC.
- Other minor cleanups.
- Make reflink a synchronous operation when the fs is mounted with wsync
or sync, which means that now we force the log to disk to record the
changes.
xfs: reflink should force the log out if mounted with wsync
Reflink should force the log out to disk if the filesystem was mounted
with wsync, the same as most other operations in xfs.
[Note: XFS_MOUNT_WSYNC is set when the admin mounts the filesystem
with either the 'wsync' or 'sync' mount options, which effectively means
that we're classifying reflink/dedupe as IO operations and making them
synchronous when required.]
